Massage S-Shape — Local services in Tokyo

I have been experiencing chronic pain on my back shoulder blade for almost a year, and last Tuesday (1/24) was the worst pain I have ever had. I stumbled upon Massage S-Shape in the internet and immediately contacted them if I can book on the same day, fortunately there was an available slot.

Kitahara-sensei was so kind even if I was a little bit late to my appointment. During the session, he thoroughly discussed what is wrong with my body and explained how it was all connected. He made sure that I was comfortable and not having too much pain during the session. The day after my appointment, I was so amazed on how my body has improved overall, the pain on my back shoulder blade has lessen and I can really feel that my body is now recovering. He also gave me a stretch that will help with my recovery.

By the time I am writing this (1/26), my left arm's range of motion has improved very much, and the pain is very minimal now. I think for a few more days my body will recover fully and the pain will be gone.

Also, as a foreigner living in Japan, it was very convenient that Kitahara-sensei speaks english very well.

Thank you very much for your help...

My wife was having abit of back pain after the flight to Japan (slight kink in her back). Tried to work with it for a few days before giving in and looking up massage places. Yoh Kitahara delivers! We booked 3 therapeutic massages. One for my wife, my dad, and myself. After the first visit, my wife no longer had backpain and was able to enjoy the rest of the trip.

For myself, the massage was excellent. Yoh starts with asking where your pain points are. Checks various mobility and posture points before starting in. Never had a massage done like his. Yoh hits the points and definitely relieved a lot of tension in my back and pelvis area. Back in the US, "therapeutic" massages usually consist of weird gongs or other "therapy".

Wish we had time to make it back again during our trip, but I know where I will go next time we...

I booked into a massage session with Yoh a couple of days into my Japan holiday as I had persistent pain in my lower back (due to a pre-existing issue). I cannot recommend him enough, not only did he resolve my lower back pain and made me feel the most aligned I have felt in a very long time, but I also felt more refreshed. The effects of his massage lasted me more than 6 weeks. While I wasn't accustomed to the massage techniques used in Shiatsu at the time it didn't take me long to fall asleep on the table. It is very relaxing.

Yoh speaks great English for those who don't speak or are not comfortable with their level of Japanese language proficiency. When I plan my next trip to Tokyo in the near future, I will definitely be booking in another massage with you Yoh. Thank you so much for making me feel so...
